Romania’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has summoned the Russian ambassador to lodge a protest over an explosion at a factory in the city of Brașov, which occurred on 14 September.

This was reported by the country’s foreign minister, Dan Neculaescu, on the X platform.

According to the Romanian minister, the evidence gathered proves Russia’s direct responsibility for this hybrid attack.

In addition, Romania condemned Russia’s systematic strikes on commercial vessels in the Black Sea. The Foreign Ministry stressed that such actions are a deliberate escalation, violate international law and freedom of navigation, and carry global consequences for the entire world.

  • Romanian intelligence has uncovered a sabotage network directly run by Russia’s security services. The network is linked to the fire that broke out on 14 September at an industrial complex in Brașov, in close proximity to CARFIL SA, a subsidiary of the national corporation ROMARM.
  • Recently, Romanian intelligence thwarted an act of sabotage on the country’s territory that was being prepared by a Russian citizen.
